Professional career

[edit]

[edit]

As a junior, Darcis compiled a singles win–loss record of 73–32, reaching as high as No. 8 in the junior world singles rankings in May 2002 (and No. 15 in doubles). He reached the semifinals at the2002 Wimbledon Championships boys' singles event.

2007–2009

[edit]

Darcis won his firstATP World Tour event at theDutch Open in July 2007 and achieved his first top-100 ranking on 26 November 2007 after winning aChallenger event in Finland.

Darcis competed at the2008 Australian Open and theFrench Open, losing in the first round in both. He andOlivier Rochus, however, reached the quarterfinals of the doubles tournament at the French Open. He reached the second round at theUS Open. He won a second ATP event atMemphis in March, defeatingRobin Söderling in the final.^[6] He reached the final of theDutch Open again, but lost toAlbert Montañés.^[7]

In 2009, Darcis played in three Grand Slam tournaments, theAustralian Open,Wimbledon, and theUS Open, reaching the second round only at Wimbledon. He also reached the quarterfinals atQueen's Club.

2010–present

[edit]

Darcis qualified for the2010 Qatar Open, retiring in his third-round match againstRafael Nadal. He failed to qualify for theAustralian Open.

At the 2011 French Open, Darcis advanced to the main draw as a qualifier, and in the first round pulled off a shock victory over 22nd seedMichaël Llodra. Darcis followed this up by beatingPhilipp Petzschner, to advance into the third round, where he was defeated by FrenchmanGaël Monfils in straight sets.

Darcis made the quarterfinals in Vienna, beatingNikolay Davydenko on the way, but was defeated byDaniel Brands.

In 2012, Darcis made the final of the Dallas Challenger tournament but lost toJesse Levine. At theEastbourne International, he defeatedMatthew Ebden,^[8]Marcos Baghdatis,^[9] andMarinko Matosevic^[10] to faceAndy Roddick in the semifinals. Darcis retired a set down at 1–3 due to a back injury.^[11]

At the2012 Summer Olympics, Darcis beatTomáš Berdych in the first round.^[12]

In thefirst round at the2013 Wimbledon Championships on 24 June, Darcis defeated fifth-seededRafael Nadal in straight sets.^[13] This made him the first player ever to defeat Nadal in the first round of any major tournament. Darcis was ranked 130 places lower than Nadal. At the time, he was the lowest-ranked player ever to beat Nadal in a Grand Slam tournament.^[14] It was announced prior to his second-round match that he had withdrawn due to a shoulder injury sustained in the Nadal match.^[15]

In the2017 Australian Open, Darcis defeatedSam Groth andDiego Schwartzman both in four sets to reach the third round, tying his best Grand Slam result to date (in singles). He was taken out byAndreas Seppi despite winning the first set of the match.^[16]

In October 2019, Darcis confirmed his plans to retire after the2020 Australian Open due to elbow pain since the2019 Wimbledon Championships.^[17]
